May 18, 2022 – Osprey Initiative is hiring part-time field technicians to pick up litter on land and around the water in the Mobile, Alabama area. This effort is part of a larger project to investigate methods to remove and reduce trash in our waterways.
Osprey Initiative is a new company bringing implementable solutions to restore and protect our natural environment. For more information about us, feel free to view Our Mission and Litter Gitter pages to learn more about our story, team, and the work we do.
Field technicians will be involved in the removal of litter and debris from other areas in support of other restoration work in the watershed.
QUALIFICATIONS

- Comfortable working around the water and in canoes / boats.
- Must be able to lift 50 pounds and feel comfortable carrying heavy items.

Our goal is to have a team servicing, maintaining, and inspecting/repairing Osprey Initiative’s Litter Gitters on a weekly basis.

You may be asked to speak to civic and educational groups and participate in awareness and litter removal programs. Osprey Initiative will provide appropriate orientation, safety & job training, and gear prior to start of work.
